Howdy ya'll!

i'm back from Nashville TN where my hubby and i visited friends who recently left us here in  CT.

and i quite possibly gained 20 lbs.  

we enjoyed some

pulled pork,

grits,

hashbrown casserole...

those are just a few examples of the southern goodies we ate. 

our good friends paul and amity on the right

The picture above is at a mexican restaurant where we saw Ted Danson and his wife. you know, Ted Danson from Cheers!? he was sitting at the table behind us!

we toured downtown nashville one day and got a dose of real TN living.

 cowboy boots/hats, 

blue eye shadow, 

rhinestone belts

and

aspiring singers.

my husband and i fell back in love with little katherine (our friends 2.5 year old) whom we haven't seen in about a year, so a lot has changed!

our trip was plain ol' awesome! we got re-acquainted with close friends and just picked up where we left off...isn't it great to have friends like this?  i will miss them terribly.

some more pictures ya'll....

now off to catch up on orders...boo for the end of vacation.
